Tesla $TSLA earnings might look good on the surface, but they are in complete shambles if you dig even a little: - Tesla Listed "one-time warranty and tariff benefits" as the #1 driver of profitability — refused to disclose the dollar amount - Seemingly Booked IEEPA tariff refunds as income in both auto AND energy segments after the Supreme Court ruling — a one-quarter windfall - Stretched supplier payments from 61 to 71 days — up from 52 days two quarters ago — adding $1.3B to payables to juice cash flow - Issued $4.3B in new debt (3x last quarter) to keep the cash position flat after a $2B SpaceX investment Meanwhile: deliveries missed, inventory piling up to 27 days of supply, energy storage down 15%, and GAAP net margin was just 2.1%

When your doctor prescribes a treatment, the evidence behind it was probably published in a journal like the British Medical Journal, or BMJ for short. The BMJ proved smoking caused cancer. It pioneered the randomised controlled trial. It is one of the four most cited medical journals on earth. This week, it published a piece that betrays that. A thread on the fall of a great journal. 🧵



The European Union sought to ease tensions with Turkey after European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen named the country alongside Russia and China, creating the impression that the NATO partner was seen as a potential threat. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…






Von der Leyen: "We must succeed in completing the European continent so that it is not shaped by Russian, Turkish, or Chinese influence". I believe this is the first time ever that an EC President has placed Ankara in the same category as Moscow and Beijing (note the order btw)
